Another round of closures has been announced for the Orwell Bridge this weekend as National Highways has said it is "making good progress".
Drivers are being warned of further overnight closures on the westbound carriageway on the A14 near Ipswich on Saturday and Sunday between 8pm and 6am.
The closures will be in place to allow the replacement bridge joints to be installed.
National Highways has said that the new joints will be lowered into place by a crane over the weekend.
Work to set the new joints will then take place over the coming days.
Closures of the westbound carriageway on Monday and Tuesday next week have been scheduled for contingency reasons, but National Highways will be keeping drivers updated on whether these will be needed or not over the weekend.
Martin Fellows, National Highways’ regional director, said: “We have made good progress working around the clock to carry out work to replace the joints on the westbound carriageway of the Orwell Bridge.
"Again, I would like to thank everyone affected by the works for their patience.
“We remain on target to complete the works next month, so people’s continued understanding is greatly appreciated.
"Please continue to remain on the A14 if your intended journey is beyond the town and the immediate surrounding areas.”
